台灣獨立音樂專輯封面視覺設計之研究

獨立音樂專輯封面含有作者的創作精神、音樂理念，讓消費者可以藉由封面感受到這張音樂專輯所描述的事物。本文主要想探討獨立音樂之封面設計是運用怎樣的素材來吸引觀眾，如何透過平面設計將音樂所引起的意象與所想表達的情感正確傳達出來。從書籍、期刊、論文中蒐集取得文獻資廖，研究獨立音樂發展及特色，以專輯封面設計與平面設計規則作連結，分析封面設計趨勢、格式，並研究獨立音樂歌曲內涵及專輯封面設計兩者之關聯性。蒐集資料研究以後列出以下幾點，是我認為獨立音樂的專輯封面視覺設計能成功與歌曲契合的要素：一、個人／團體風格強烈，二、創作理念明確，三、主要色彩。封面就像專輯的名片，吸引大眾更深入了解其中的音樂，專輯封面絕對是音樂作品裡很重要的一環。尤其現代人大多都使用網路聽歌，較少會購買實體專輯，要把專輯做到讓消費者覺得這是一張可以收藏的專輯就更為重要。
